A fun and frosty slushy is tucked into this whimsical cupcake wrapper from the Buggy Daze collection. We pushed mini orange slice candies onto the wooden lollipop stick and slid it into the icy drink.

We used a simple cotton candy machine... so much fun… to swirl a bit of the classic sugary treat onto this rock candy lollipop stick. We nestled the cotton candy into a cupcake wrapper for display. This cupcake wrapper is from the Flowers for Tiffany collection.

These super versatile lollipop sticks come in two lengths, 4 ¼ inches and 6 inches. The 6 inch lollipop sticks make lovely cupcake toppers. Using a paper punch, we cut a tag from a coordinating color of paper. We punched two standard size holes in the tag and threaded it onto the lollipop stick. For added charm, we tied a puffy tulle bow to the top to coordinate with this cupcake wrapper from the Birthday Wishes collection.

This adorable cake pop was made on a 4 ¼ inch wooden lollipop stick. Before pushing the stick into the cake ball, we slid silk flower petals to the top of the lollipop stick. This fun idea for entertaining is perfect for a wedding or wedding shower, baby shower, or a sweet, girly garden party.

5 Ways to Use Mini Cupcake Wrappers

 

Mini desserts are fantastic because, you get to indulge in several sweet treats without overdoing it. That’s partly why dessert tables are all the rage right now. Dessert tables are perfect for weddings, anniversary parties, reunions, birthday parties, or showers, adding elegance to any occasion.

 

Mini desserts look so sweet in mini cupcake wrappers, highlighted on trays and platters. Tiered cake stands add height to the dessert display. Here are a few ideas for filling those Mini Skirtz mini cupcake wrappers on your next dessert table.

 

Great ways to use those mini cupcake wrappers

 

Oreo Bundles in Mini Cupcake Wrappers

 

* Oreos tied in pretty bundles with a little ribbon.

 

We bundled three Oreo cookies together with some ribbon tied in a simple knot. To make these humble chocolate cookies presentable for our posh dessert table, we dropped the bundles into Little Black Dress Mini Skirtz, mini cupcake wrappers by Confetti Couture.

 

Tea Light Candles in Mini Cupcake Wrappers

 

* Tea light candles

 

We placed the tea lights that come in a tiny glass holder (from the dollar store!) inside these mini cupcake wrappers. We love that the candles can so easily coordinate with our event, and the reversible Mini Skirtz cupcake wrappers bring the style up a notch.

 

Mini Cupcake Wrappers as Soda Bottle Labels

 

* Names on soda bottles

 

Nothing worse than taking a sip of your drink at a party… and realizing it belongs to Uncle Ralph. Name labels for drink bottles are so popular, maybe solely for this reason, but we think not. They are a lovely addition to otherwise ordinary party fare. Confetti Couture’s mini cupcake wrappers have an aqueous coating, so they are perfect for writing a name, and sliding them around the neck of soda bottles. Simply tie a coordinating ribbon above the cupcake wrapper on each bottle, to keep them in place.

 

Brownie bites in mini cupcake wrappers

 

* Two-bite brownies

 

The simple two-bite brownie makes a statement at the party with some easy accessories. Just slip them into mini cupcake wrappers, and top each brownie with a small chunk of a chocolate bar paired with a fresh cherry. Caramel sauce and a gooey, caramel filled chocolate candy on top makes another sinfully delicious treat in seconds.

 

Cake Pops in Mini Cupcake Wrappers

 

* Cake pops

 

Cake pops are so much fun, and can be extravagantly decorated. We are not pastry chefs of any sort... but we do know yumminess. So, make some delectable cake pops and serve them using these darling cake pop kits. Don’t worry if you aren’t the type that can craft a perfect storybook character out of sugar. These reversible mini cupcake wrappers hold your confection of perfection ever so stylishly. And even if it’s less than perfect, it will look drop-dead-gorgeous!

 

The precious mini cake plate in the photo? It’s simply a full size, Dessert Skirtz cupcake wrapper, assembled and placed upside-down. To the cupcake wrapper, we glued a coaster. These adorable tiny cake stands work beautifully for dessert tables, party tables, place cards and so much more.

 

We say go mini, or go home. Or go mini at home. Well, you get the picture. Mini treats are the way to satisfy everyone’s sweet tooth at your next party.

Valentine Cake Pops

 

Do your little ones love giving a Valentine treat and a special message away to their classmates? Need a little something to give the teacher? Are you on the search for a creative way to give a Valentine that doesn’t involve perforated paper cards or a pouch of blue sugar? Check this out…

 

Valentine Cake Pops

 

Cake pops are a couple bites of decadent, whimsical, Valentine tastiness.

 

With all of the new cake pop machines available now, making them is as easy as pie (no, easier than pie!). These Valentine cake pops were made using a set of Cake Pop Trinketz, a cake pop kit for displaying these sweet Valentine treats.

 

 

Cake Pop Kit

 

Cake Pop Decorating Kit

 

Each cake pop kit comes with 12 Mini Skirtz wrappers, 12 wooden lollipop sticks, and 12 embellishments.

 

These adorable cake pop kits are charming gifts on their own, as well. They are packaged in a classy reusable tin with a window in the lid. Sweet.

 

To create your Valentine cake pops…

 

* Wrap each cake pop with some plastic wrap or drop them into clear lollipop bags.

 

* Close the bags with the ribbons from your Cake Pop Trinketz kit.

 

* To the stick, you can attach your Valentine message. Write your message on a small piece of pretty paper, wrap it around the cake pop stick, and secure it in the shape of a tiny flag.

 

* Alternatively, just cut a small tag with a scalloped punch and attach it to the cake pop stick with a glue dot.

 

White Cake Pops

 

Just like Dessert Skirtz, a Cake Pop Trinketz cake pop kit can transform even the frumpiest of cake pops into a treat that is special enough to give as a gift. The friends will swoon over these fun Valentine cake pops. They are perfect for all ages, from kids to adults. Give it a try!
